Proper search box functionality in sidebar
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

Make the "go to bug #" box in the sidebar function as a search box, if anything
but a numeral is entered. There is currently no one-click search option; one
has to go to the "Search bugs" page first; and to encourage fewer dup bugs, we
should make search as intuitive and easy as possible.

WIth quotes around the search term, you're not getting an exact title match. Full search is temporarily disabled during
